The S’more is a celebrated childhood treat dating back to the 1920s, when Girl Scouts invented the magical mix of graham crackers, chocolate, and roasted marshmallows. The name, according to folklore, came about when, after eating one, one young child said “ . . . gimme some more! . . .”. There is even a National S’mores Day (although it’s not an “officially” recognized national day), celebrated every August 10th. S’mores have always been associated with campfires and the wilderness, but today, many people can be seen enjoying this marvelous treat at restaurants — as a table top dessert — or even at luxurious spas. Now, you can actually make these delicious treats in your own home, on vacation, or even at the campfire, as food wizard John Felts — along with a gang of precocious young food magicians — serves up a one-of-a-kind cookbook of “ the quintessential dessert in paradise” Gimme S’More, a picture cookbook, brings together a collection of S’more recipes, ranging from the classic to the elaborate, holiday S’mores! In this this one-of-a-kind recipe picture book, not only will the reader learn a myriad of ways to make a S’more, but also learn many innovative recipes and tricks — such as the perfect way to roast a marshmallow — from the Felts, a family that has mastered the art of producing delicious food out of unconventional methods. “Over many years of family outings, we have perfected the art of S’mores”, says the John Felts, the leader of the gang. “The last 20 years, we have spent summers vacationing in Maui overlooking the beautiful ocean. With family and friends, a nightly ritual has evolved which involves cooking fresh fish over an open fire and then roasting marshmallows for S’mores” “The combination of the ocean, warm summer breezes, and great food have made these evenings at the beach Lifelong memories”, adds Felts. “This book is an extension of these great times and will, with time, serve as the basis for many more memorable evenings with family and friends” Pretty much like its unconventional recipes, Gimme S’More is one delicious treat!
